Talk:Guide for Players Coming from World of Warcraft

Hi, I think this page should disincentivise the ability even more to skip the story. Even with friends' best intentions if an ex-WoW player is linked this page sees that it's possible they might jump on the trigger during the ARR-slog. That part could be omitted and directly referenced to cutscenes instead. I propose to following:

That said, there is an option to purchase a skip from the store, allowing you skip directly to the start of a later expansion. If it is your first time playing through the story, it is strongly recommended that you do NOT skip any part of the main story. It should be noted that many players consider parts of A Realm Reborn (Levels 1-50), and especially the endgame story (Level 50) to be a bit of a drag, so patience is advised. The story is told in a way that lets you care, about your character, your companions, your friends and world, and that is only working if you actually play it, if you interact with those very companions and friends. The story is generally considered to become more exciting as you get into the expansions - and that's to a considerable degree because of the building up upon the setup from the early levels.
